Lions and Tigers and Bears - OH MY!

It was Ben's first trip to the zoo! We slathered on the sunscreen and went to check out the animals - and so did everyone else in Cincinnati!

Ben liked looking at the elephants - we even watched one give himself a bath!

Isn't he so cute in his hat??
Ben thought the lions looked like Murphy (our dog)!

Overall, it was a great family day!


Happy Mother's Day!

What a great Mother's Day! We hung out at home all day with our family and it was just perfect! Lots of food, playing, and cuddling - it doesn't get better than that! I am so grateful for Ben - I always wanted to be a mom, and I thank God that he chose me to be Ben's mommy!

Here's a sweet picture of the best gift ever - my gorgeous son!
(Thanks to Eddie for providing some good-looking genes! ;))

Eddie and Ben did a great job shopping!


What a great find! I just love wine bottle with fun names!
Happy (belated) Mother's Day to all the amazing moms I know!

Daddy Time!

Check out my handsome boys! Ben and Eddie wore matching Polo shirts to Brody's baptism last week (shockingly, I didn't plan it!). They both looked so darn cute - as always, I was proud to call them my own!

Just hanging out on a Monday with Daddy!

Whatcha lookin' at?

Ben is so lucky to be able to spend Mondays with Eddie while I'm at work - we call them "Daddy Days!" Eddie is such an amazing daddy - he's patient, kind, and just plain fun! Ben laughs all the time when he's with Eddie. I'm so thankful they are able to have their "boy time" together!
